Hi! My name is Alex. I am a dual licensed LPC, or Licensed Professional Counselor and LCADC, Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I am licensed and practice in NJ. I have been in the field in some capacity for over a decade. I have worked in many modalities of treatment, with diverse populations ranging in age, presenting topic, race, socio-economic status, etc. I work with clients ranging in age from 6-65. My goal is to assist you in tackling the presenting issue whether it be parenting skills, family dynamics, addiction, mood, coping skills, or other by utilizing a variety of techniques. I believe in teaching the theories and skills so that you may utilize them down the road if and when needed. I pride myself on honesty and straightforwardness, delivered with compassion and care.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we will start with introductions, addressing any questions, comments or concerns you may have. We will briefly go over scheduling, cancellations, policy. We will then move on to history gathering. The purpose of this session is for me to gather history and hear your goals for treatment. We will wrap up with an outline of a game plan, or treatment plan, which will be solidified in session two.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked in a wide range of treatment modalities, with a diverse population throughout, all with a variety of differing presenting problems, I feel as though I use a large and diverse skill set, and eclectic theories and skills to individualize treatment. None of my clients receive a standard treatment plan. Each has a very specific and individualized plan. I feel as though my commitment to honesty, helps to cement the therapeutic relationship. I am straightforward, and like to have clearly defined goals to better help you. I deliver this with compassion and empathy that I feel rounds out my clinical abilities.
